Ethnic Disparities in Early-Onset Gastric Cancer Persist across Rural-Urban Geographies.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundThe incidence of noncardia gastric cancer is increasing in adults ages less than 50 years old. Early-onset gastric cancer (EOGC) is characterized by ethnic disparities occurring more in Hispanic persons than non-Hispanic persons. It is unknown whether rural-urban disparities exist in EOGC and if this intersects with ethnic disparities.
methodsWe utilized the Surveillance Epidemiology and End Results 17 Census Tract-level Socioeconomic Status and Rurality Database from 2006 to 2018 to calculate incidence rates and incidence rate ratios of EOGC among Hispanic and non-Hispanic persons by census tract rural-urban location, age, gender, persistent poverty, and stage of disease. We used the Tiwari Method to estimate incidence rate ratios with 95% confidence intervals (CI).
resultsHispanic persons had higher incidence rates of EOGC compared with non-Hispanic persons in both rural [incident rate ratios (IRR), 2.12; 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.64-2.73] and urban census tracts (IRR, 2.03; 95% CI, 1.91-2.16). Similar findings were seen when comparing Hispanic to non-Hispanic persons in rural and urban census tracts by age, stage of disease, and persistent poverty.
conclusionsHigher incidence rates of EOGC among Hispanic persons persist across rural-urban locations. Further research is needed to understand the etiology of this elevated risk in young Hispanics and interventions that may help to modify their outcome. IMPACT: While other cancers have ethnic disparities which may differ by rural-urban location, the ethnic disparity in EOGC among Hispanic and non-Hispanic persons does not differ by rural-urban residence.
